ALMOND APPLE STUFFING
This is one incredibly sweet stuffing. It is very good with pork chops, and I'm sure would be great with anything else. I think that the original recipe came from my Grandma W, but am not sure. And there was a note on the almond ingredients that suggested using Almond Accents brand? Looks like Grandma's handwriting...

Steps:
- Bring stock to a boil in a large saucepan, then add wild rice and salt to taste. When the liquid returns to the boil, lower heat, cover and simmer 40 minutes, until rice is tender and has begun to splay. Drain through a strainer, and set aside.
- Heat oil over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet, then add onion or shallots. Cook, stirring often, until tender, about five minutes for onions or three minutes for shallots. Add a generous pinch of salt and the garlic. Cook until fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute. Add mushrooms and celery and cook, stirring, until mushrooms have softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in rice and remaining ingredients. Cook, stirring, until sherry has evaporated. Taste and adjust seasonings.
- Remove from the heat, and allow to cool before stuffing your turkey. Or place in an oiled baking dish and cover, then warm for 20 to 30 minutes in a 350-degree oven.

Tips:
- Use a variety of apples. This will give your stuffing a more complex flavor and texture. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady apples are all good choices.
- Don't peel the apples. The skin adds flavor and texture to the stuffing.
- Toast the almonds. This will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
- Use fresh herbs. They will add a pop of flavor to the stuffing.
- Don't overstuff the turkey. This will prevent the stuffing from cooking evenly.
- Let the stuffing rest before serving. This will help it hold its shape and absorb the flavors of the other ingredients.
Conclusion:
Apple almond stuffing is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. It is a versatile dish that can be made with a variety of ingredients, so you can customize it to your own taste. Whether you are a seasoned cook or a beginner, you are sure to love this recipe.
